A fame-hungry vlogger ventures into an abandoned cemetery in hopes of capturing a viral ghost encounter, but their quest for internet fame takes a hilarious turn as they uncover a chilling truth about their own existence.

When a young woman stuck in Manila’s nightlife, calls a random number on a bathroom wall, she meets a stranger who keeps reappearing in different forms, forcing her to confront what it truly means to love someone beyond appearance and identity.

In hopes of bringing her heart’s desires into fruition, Monika tries to manifest through her own ritual—until an unexpected turn unfolds right in front of her.

The story follows a young boy, Paelo, who spends his semestral break in his home in Laguna. During his stay, an event in his family unfolds and he’ll be forced to navigate his surroundings through a child’s imagination–with his favorite Auntie, Mae.

Do two serial killers, Oscar and Enzo, still deserve love when the blood of their victims are stained permanently on their relationship?

"Iiyak ang Langit" is an excruciating documentary that exposes the untold pain of the families struggling to survive after the extrajudicial killings in the Philippines. Melinda is at the heart of this story—she lost her son to state violence and now makes a living by producing candles. Her story, together with the candlemakers—unified not only by wax and wick but by grief and survival—turned out to be a reflection of how labor-fueled both mourning and resistance. As they maneuver their hands to turn darkness into light, even the sky seemed to weep with them.
